or with the simultaneous estimation of the permeability of the cell to water (Jacobs, '33). In this paper there will be presented certain additional data concerning the Arbacia egg obtained during the summers of 1933-1935, inclusive, on the following points: 1) permeability to three new substances, namely, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol and trimethylene glycol, 2) the effect of the electrolyte content of the medium on permeability to ethylene glycol, and simultaneously to water, and 3) permeability to ethylene glycol and to water in the absence of electrolytes, with some incidental observations on the increased permeability that accompanies artificial membrane formation.

I n a recent paper it was reported(1) that the fragility of certain mammalian erythrocytes is increased by testicular extract. In the last analysis such a change in erythrocytes signifies an increase in their permeability to hemoglobin. Since there was a certain amount of evidence from the work of D
Values of k may easily be computed froin the volume-time curve by drawing a tangent to the curve at any desired instant; the details of this method are given elsewhere(5). But for purposes of greater accuracy the integrated equation has been used in the present paper.
